SpaztastiX (single, collab)
mt180 & TerraRuneOfficial
25 July 2024
first official collab project i've finished. i'm not proud of it by any means but it's not bad which constitutes a win i think. i let terra upload it because i wasn't particularly worried about publishing it at all but they were confident it was release worthy. go off i guess
it's probably really obvious who made each part but i think that's part of the fun. i doubt i'll do anything like this again for a long while but who knows. maybe potat will appear in my dms asking to collab every day for the next 3 years

very excited about this ep. it's inspired by zef parisoto's submerged self ep and contains what i believe to be my best work so far. i also use my voice in this one which is really unusual and might never happen again so that's cool. i say more in the readme in the download if you care
i suppose i'll write a bit about the tracks
the first track was made when i was exceptionally tired. i realized i had something cool in the first few notes i played for the melody thing so i decided i would write an album around it
track two was made when i was listening to the aforementioned submerged self ep multiple times per day. the primary bass sound in the drops are actually based directly off a sound in don't you forget me. i also did some weird vocal chop thing for a sound in the last drop.
third track is the most important one. i say words in it! the lyrics are in the readme i mentioned before. they should also be in the description of individual track upload if i don't forget
last track is some dark atmospheric thing i made based off aurastys - qxxv

new dnb track. this took an entire month to make because i kept running into issues making it sound like one continuous song. i also had a hard time with sound design in several steps
now it's out anyway! i think it's very cool. its initial draft was massively inspired by (if not like, directly stolen from) a GBB24 loopstation wildcard by Balance. i then added a part which was largely inspired by the fast bubbly part in nhelv (i am making no sense) (timestamped link)
most of the sounds in this song, as usual, were made using this ancient vst i have called impulse. a couple sounds were made in vital, and the last drop's main sound is made from sampled parts of the first drop (chopped and played through some version of the tx16wx vst sampler) frequency shifted down and distorted a bunch. drums took an unusual amount of time to get right. everything was also weirdly quiet until 2 days before release.
this song sucks on speakers and i am NOT sorry. my stuff is made for headphone listening, if you're not listening on headphones it'll probably just sound bad. i can't stop you though

guys i actually continued doing the one release per month thing. that's insane
song was mostly made on stream. you can find the stream somewhere i don't feel like linking it
i also don't feel like writing about this song right now. maybe you can bother me about it on discord later or smth idc

congratulations to me for actually sticking to the words i said when i said "i want to do at least one release per month"
this track took like a week to make because i kept only working for 30-50 minute sessions and i could not figure out what to do for the intro
i believe i've said before that i don't really like house but for some reason i keep doing house-adjacent things. i think my problem with house isn't necessarily anything to do with the genre itself and more with the common conventions and artists associated with it. i started to realize this when i was watching the gbb2023 loopstation category battles, many of the rounds are house but i found i was enjoying them anyway. part of it was that it was a loopstation battle so i was directly perceiving a higher level of performance compared with the house music i was familiar with (whether such a comparison can really be made or not), but part of it was that it was actually just good music.
then i made music on --stunlock; which includes some house-like styles, confirming to myself that house doesn't suck because it's house and more because the house i was familiar with sucked
so here's a song that includes some heavier (for my style) dnb stuff, some house-ish stuff, some melodic-ish dnb stuff, and whatever other sounds i wanted to add. i hope someone out there likes it
